Swimming

On Thursday we were going to the pools because to learn water lesson and we had to change fast , so we can stright into the pool then they told us to get in the pool and swim to test us to go on drifferent groups . So when we were in groups I was learning to be water safety and swimming , the first thing that we did is learning to say help , but I was think about when someone  was in the middle of the sea and there were nobody were near so someone would lay on my belly and look for shore . It was fun doing the water safety and doing some fun challanges like floating on you back for one minute it was really fun and then we swim next to the line up to the red floate then go back and siwm backwards and I think every kiwi should be water safety. 

Steve Minecraft School

For maths I had made a maths game it help people with addtion and times tables and I had lot of fun doing this activity about making games and maths too . But I have learnt that making a game it is a hard thing to do becuase linking the correct thing togther without making mistakes , and then on thurdays people were showcasing their maths and they were incredible it was really amazing and it was also of a show of cofidence . I had enjoyed sharing my maths to others because it was sharing ideas for another it was a fun way from ending the Term , and the feed back was making sure the links are correct and correct spelling . ( Push the arrows unit when it hit the maths )

Yesterday I made a main idea about a Swaggman (Seasonalworker) that was looking for a job because it was hard for people in a Australia in 1880's and So there was a swaggman was stole the sheep and trying to run away from the police from getting the sheep , so then he escape from the police from  Jumping in the water hole and legends have said you will hear the a sprit saying you will be a waltzing Matilda with me from the eakos from the water hole . I think about the writer was talking about people that from the days it was a hard life for the people that didn't get any money or a home

Waltzing Matilda Summary

On Monday  for Reading we were making a summary by a poem called Waltzing Matilda
so it is about a swagman (Seasonal Worker) that means for each season the swagman was
working for picking up apple from the tree for summer or spring , so then he was walking on foot
talking to each land onwer to get a job from there , but known one will acpecet him becuase it was hard in the olden days. So then one day he was under a coolibah tree waiting for something and then it was getting late , but he saw a Jumbuck ( sheep ) was drinking from the billabong (waterhole) then he put the sheep in the bag and runing a away , but the land owner call the troopers (Police) . In the poem it talks about people in the olden day that it was hard for people get jobs and money , so this wrtiter was writing about peom that of a man that had stole a sheep for food becuase he had no food and no house to sleep .

Maths Vocabulary

      

Today my group (Me, Jayden and Jonathan) and I worked on this Maths vocabulary activity. It was made by Whaea Donna to help kids understand what some maths words meant. Mrs Anderson asked us what a plane is. Everyone thought it was a flying vehicle but because she was talking about the flat surface plane, all of us were wrong. This was a really good way to show us that words might mean something different in maths. If we didn't know a word Jayden would go on the explore tool to find out the meaning. I would drag the ones I knew and the ones that Jayden and Jonathan didn't know into the bottom section. Jonathan was helping me by dragging the words that go in the top section. After we finished it all of us had a good understanding of most of the maths words. Jayden, Jonathan and I worked collaborativly together as a group to complete this activity.
